"'To the faithful you show yourself faithful;
to those with integrity you show integrity.
To the pure you show yourself pure,
but to the wicked you show yourself hostile.'"
Our perception of God is colored by our own character. God doesn't change, but our ability to perceive his character is linked to who we are. Perhaps this is why God wants us to become more and more like him: so we can know him more fully. Jesus said that to know God truly brings eternal life (John 17:3). How do you experience God? What does that say about you? What in your own character might you want to work on prayerfully? (For instance, if you struggle with his goodness, how good are you?)
